There had been a great earthquake; for an angel of the Lord had come down from heaven, and gone and rolled away the stone, and was sitting upon it. His appearance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow. The guards trembled for fear of him, and became like dead men. read more.
But to the women the angel said: "You need have no fear, for I know that you are seeking Jesus, the Crucified One.

and upon entering the tomb they saw a young man sitting on the right side, clothed in a white robe. They were terrified, but he said to them. "Do not be terrified! You are seeking Jesus the Nazarene, who was crucified? He is risen; he is not here. See, the place where they laid him! But go, tell his disciples and Peter, "'He is going before you into Galilee, where you will see him, as he told you.'"

"and found that his body was not there; then they came and told us that besides they had seen a vision of angels, who said that he was alive.

and gazed at two angels in glistening white sitting, one at the head the other at the feet, where the body of Jesus had lain.

And there were present several women who were looking on from a distance; they had followed Jesus from a Galilee, ministering to him. among them being Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James and Joses, and the mother of Zebedee's sons. When it was eventide, there came a rich man of Arimathea, named Josephus, who was himself a disciple of Jesus. read more.
This man went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. Pilate then commanded that it be given over to him. So Joseph took the body, and wrapped it in a clean linen cloth, and laid it in his own new tomb, which he had cut in the rock; and after rolling a great stone against the opening of the tomb, he went away. And Mary Magdalene was there, and the other Mary, sitting opposite the tomb.

At the end of the Sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary came down to see the sepulcher, when lo! There had been a great earthquake; for an angel of the Lord had come down from heaven, and gone and rolled away the stone, and was sitting upon it. His appearance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow. read more.
The guards trembled for fear of him, and became like dead men. But to the women the angel said: "You need have no fear, for I know that you are seeking Jesus, the Crucified One. He is not here; for he is risen, even as he said. Come, see the place where the Master was lying! And go quickly and tell his disciples. 'He is risen from the dead; he goes before you into Galilee; you will see him there.' Remember, I have told you." On this they ran quickly from the sepulcher, in fear and great joy, to tell the news to his disciples.

It was Mary Magdalene, Joanna, and Mary, the mother of James, and the rest of the women who were telling all this to the apostles.

Meanwhile, outside, Mary stood sobbing near the tomb. Still sobbing she stooped and looked into the tomb, and gazed at two angels in glistening white sitting, one at the head the other at the feet, where the body of Jesus had lain. They said to her, "Woman, why are you weeping?" She answered, "Because they have taken away my Master, and I do not know where they have laid him." read more.
When she had said this she turned around and saw Jesus standing there, but did not know that it was Jesus. Jesus said to her. "Woman, why are you weeping? Whom are you seeking?" She, supposing that he was the gardener, said to him, "Sir, if you have borne him away, tell me where you have put him, and I will take him away, myself." "Mary," said Jesus. She turned to him. "Rabboni!" she cried in Hebrew. That is to say, "Teacher." "Do not cling to me," said Jesus, "for I am not yet ascended to the Father. But go to my brothers and say to them, "'I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.'" Away went Mary Magdalene to the disciples with the tidings, "I have seen the Master!" and that he said these things to her.

And they went up to him and clasped his feet and worshiped him. Then Jesus said to them. "Fear not! Go tell my brothers to depart into Galilee, and they will see men there." Now while they were on their way, some of the guard went into the city and told the high priest all that had happened. And when they had met with the elders and conferred together, they heavily bribed the soldiers and told them to say, "His disciples came by night and stole him away, while we were asleep." "If this should reach the Governor's ears," they said, "we will satisfy him and screen you from punishment." So the soldiers took the money, and did as they were told; and this story has been noised abroad among the Jews, and continues to this day.

When the Sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of James, and Salome brought spices in order to go and anoint him. And very early in the morning, on the first day of the week, they came to the tomb as the sun was rising; and they kept saying to one another, "Who will roll away the stone for us from the door of the tomb?" read more.
But then as they looked up they saw that the stone, which was a very large one, was already rolled away; and upon entering the tomb they saw a young man sitting on the right side, clothed in a white robe. They were terrified, but he said to them. "Do not be terrified! You are seeking Jesus the Nazarene, who was crucified? He is risen; he is not here. See, the place where they laid him! But go, tell his disciples and Peter, "'He is going before you into Galilee, where you will see him, as he told you.'" So they went out, and ran from the tomb, for they were trembling and amazed; and they said nothing to any one, for they were afraid??9 Now after his resurrection, early on the first day of the week he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, from whom he had driven out seven demons. She went and told those who had been with him, as they mourned and wept. But they, although they heard that he was living and had been seen by her did not believe it.

On the Sabbath Day they rested in obedience to the commandment, but in the deep dawn of the first day of the week they took the spices which they had prepared, and came to the tomb. And they found the stone rolled away from the tomb, and on entering they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus. read more.
While they were still perplexed over this, it happened that the two men stood near them in dazzling raiment. They were terrified, and bowed down their faces to the ground, but the men said to them. "Why are you seeking him who lives among the dead? "He is not here; he is risen. Do you remember how he told you when he was still in Galilee that the Son of man had to be betrayed into the hands of sinful men, and to be crucified, and to rise on the third day?" Then they recollected his words, and turning away from the tomb they told all this to the eleven, and to all the rest. It was Mary Magdalene, Joanna, and Mary, the mother of James, and the rest of the women who were telling all this to the apostles. But the whole story seemed to them but an idle tale; and they disbelieved the women. Peter, however, got up and ran to the tomb, but when he stooped and looked in he saw the linen wrappings by themselves, and he departed to his home, wondering at that which was come to pass.

On the first day of the week, very early in the morning, while it was yet dark, Mary Magdalene came to the tomb and discovered that the stone had been removed from the tomb. So she came running to Simon Peter and that other disciple whom Jesus loved, saying, "They have taken the Master out of the tomb, and we do not know where they have laid him!" So Peter and the other disciples set out at once to go to the tomb. read more.
They both began to run; and the other disciple ran faster than Peter, and came first to the tomb. Stooping down he glanced in and saw the linen wrapping lying on the ground; but he did not go in. Then Peter also came following him, and he went inside the tomb; and he gazed at the linen wrapping as they lay, and the napkin which had been about his head not lying with the wrappings, but rolled up in it's own place. Then the other disciple also who arrived first at the tomb went inside, and he perceived and believed. For not yet had they understood the Scripture, that he must rise again from the dead. Then the disciples went back again to their home. Meanwhile, outside, Mary stood sobbing near the tomb. Still sobbing she stooped and looked into the tomb, and gazed at two angels in glistening white sitting, one at the head the other at the feet, where the body of Jesus had lain. They said to her, "Woman, why are you weeping?" She answered, "Because they have taken away my Master, and I do not know where they have laid him." When she had said this she turned around and saw Jesus standing there, but did not know that it was Jesus. Jesus said to her. "Woman, why are you weeping? Whom are you seeking?" She, supposing that he was the gardener, said to him, "Sir, if you have borne him away, tell me where you have put him, and I will take him away, myself." "Mary," said Jesus. She turned to him. "Rabboni!" she cried in Hebrew. That is to say, "Teacher." "Do not cling to me," said Jesus, "for I am not yet ascended to the Father. But go to my brothers and say to them, "'I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.'" Away went Mary Magdalene to the disciples with the tidings, "I have seen the Master!" and that he said these things to her.


And there were present several women who were looking on from a distance; they had followed Jesus from a Galilee, ministering to him. among them being Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James and Joses, and the mother of Zebedee's sons.

The twelve were with him, and certain women whom he had delivered from evil spirits and various diseases. Mary of Magdala, out of whom seven demons have been driven, and Joanna, the wife of Chuza, Herod's steward, and Susanna, and many other women, who used to minister to him out of their substance.

Away went Mary Magdalene to the disciples with the tidings, "I have seen the Master!" and that he said these things to her.

He was also followed by a great crowd of people, and of women too, who were beating their breast and lamenting him.

And Mary Magdalene was there, and the other Mary, sitting opposite the tomb.

At the end of the Sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary came down to see the sepulcher, when lo!

On this they ran quickly from the sepulcher, in fear and great joy, to tell the news to his disciples. And behold! Jesus himself met them, saying, "All hail!" And they went up to him and clasped his feet and worshiped him.

Then the women who had accompanied him out of Galilee followed after, and noted the tomb, and how his body was placed. Then they returned and prepared spices and perfumes.

On the Sabbath Day they rested in obedience to the commandment, but in the deep dawn of the first day of the week they took the spices which they had prepared, and came to the tomb. And they found the stone rolled away from the tomb, and on entering they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus. read more.
